Plug-A-Jug
The object of the game is to be the first player to spell plug a jug. Players take turns rolling a six-sided die. The sides of the die show either a blank, a jug, or a cork. Players take turns rolling the die. When one player rolls a jug symbol they open the jug and shake out the small plastic letters and try to spell "plug a jug." While they are doing this the other players takes turns rolling the die, until one of them rolls the cork symbol. Once a cork symbol is rolled, the jug is plugged, and any additional letters are returned to the jug and the play continues until one player spells "plug a jug." If, while shaking letters out of the jug, the black marble falls out, that player must return all of their letters from this and previous turns to the jug. The jug is then plugged and play continues. The game contains enough plastic letters (32) for four players to be able to spell plug a jug, the six-sided die, and the dreaded black marble.
